# What if my club and payment account countries differ?

> Why finalizing payments is blocked when your club country no longer matches your verified payment account country.

<Note>
  **Must know**

  * Your payment account is created for a specific country **the moment you start payment onboarding**, and that country can't be changed afterward — even before your verification is approved.
  * If your club country and your payment account country differ, payment setup can't be completed and a mismatch banner is shown.
  * Country is **read-only** for club admins — contact support to change it or to re-run onboarding.
</Note>

The moment you start payment onboarding, your payment account is created for a specific country, and that country is effectively fixed. If your club's country is later changed so it no longer matches — at any point after onboarding begins, even before your verification is approved — the two no longer line up and Uplifter can't finalize your payout setup.

**What you'll see**

On **Settings → Financials → Payment Onboarding**, a destructive **"Address country mismatch"** banner appears, and Uplifter can't finish creating your payout account until the countries match again.

**Why country is read-only**

Your club's country drives your billing identity and settlement currency, so it can only be changed by support — not by a club admin. In the **Edit Contact Information** panel — opened with **Edit** from your organization overview — the Country field is shown but can't be edited. If you edit your address after starting payment onboarding, Uplifter also warns that address changes can break your verified setup.

**How to fix it**

Contact your Uplifter support contact. They can either restore the club country to match your verified account or help you re-run onboarding for the correct country.
